FBI Special Agent Leah Capello knew the art world had a dark side, but kidnapping is a whole new hue. To save a young child she accepts the help of Joshua Fawls, who claims to be an art expert, seems a little psychic and is probably, more than likely, a delightfully skilled conman. Together they blend conventions, break rules, and learn that the artist Edgar Debgas was right. Art is not what you see, but what you make others see. Just like the perfect crime.

Never, Ophelia said, narrowing her eyes two microns more.

Roberts said, The request came from our witness.

Oh, Leach had no decent response. A witness that requested her?

The weirdness had to wait. What was taken ? she asked.

An Anselm Kiefer , Ophelia said.

Just the one ?

Yes.

You’re sure only the one painting is missing

Quite, Ophelia forced a smile.
